When you think of the Student Assembly at Cornell, what comes to mind? Corruption? Inaction? Powerlessness? Or perhaps, nothing comes to mind at all?
Long before medical school applications are even submitted, students are already navigating what it means to be pre-medical, or ‘pre-med.’ That label tends to stick early, and people start making decisions around it before they even fully know what it entails. Cornell’s pre-med culture lives in two different worlds at once.

Everyone deserves to feel safe here at Cornell, especially in their living spaces. But when 35% of undergraduate women report experiencing sexual assault on campus and the most common locations are residence halls and off-campus housing, it really is difficult to. Looking to the administration for recourse is often disappointing, and this issue is no exception.
Cornell undergraduate students have the opportunity to select their next Student Assembly president for the 2026-2027 academic year. Voting opened at noon on Monday for the Spring 2026 election cycle, and students have until noon on April 27 to cast their online ballot, according to an email sent out by the Student Assembly.
As I enter the spacious room and take my seat in a single row of eight other participants, the lights begin to dim and the music crescendos. Facing us at the front of the room, the DJ sits, too, beginning to narrate the performance to come. She starts the routine and beckons us, the audience, to come along for the ride. Following her musically-aligned movements and encouraging instructions, I am sweating in no time, but not so much that I can't keep up; the music drives me forward. An hour passes and the lights fade in. Rejuvenated and showered in sweat, our cohort disbands. Another successful spin class in the books.
This spring, a ramshackle house with cigarette-stained ceilings will go on the market in Falmouth, Massachusetts, a middle-class resort town on the back shoulder of Cape Cod. Enterprising realtors will find it set back from the road on a steep hill rolling down to a kettlehole pond and deem it a fixer-upper. That is a euphemism for tearing it down and building something larger, an air-conditioned summer palace without such a convoluted floorplan. The old house will endure, however, in my memory.
There comes a point in the spring semester when you’re no longer hyper-aware of how you’re being perceived, when your reputation feels a little less fragile than it did in the fall. As we enter the last few weeks of the school year, many students, especially us first-years, have had similar experiences: a potentially tanked GPA, an awkward talking stage, a failed situationship and a probable rejection from a summer internship (but every company just ghosts you).
Growing up playing piano and violin, music has always felt like a shared language between my family and me. Over time I started hearing it as something carefully constructed, shaped through small decisions that change its emotional direction in subtle ways. Although I tend to gravitate toward certain genres, I’ve found myself appreciating almost all kinds of music in different ways. What has stayed constant across time and styles is the way I listen; I’m always drawn to the beat or structure of a song. The way chords settle beneath a vocal line or how a rhythm lingers instead of rushing forward often stays with me longer than anything else.
Since the emergence of “fandoms,” the existence of the “ship” has dominated how people consume and engage with media. Shipping refers to the art of imagining, creating or supporting — usually romantic — relationships between characters in a fictional medium. However, I’m sure the 2014 Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson shippers wouldn’t expect that the ships of 2026 would not only include fictional characters, but also almost always involve social media celebrities and influencers.

This article has been updated to include quotes from head coach Casey Jones ’90.
Coming off of a sweep of No. 12/11 Duke (8-3,0-2 ACC) and RV/NR High Point (6-6, 5-0 A-10), men’s lacrosse is now down to its final two regular season games of the year: Dartmouth (4-7, 0-4 Ivy) and Harvard (9-2, 3-1 Ivy). This past weekend, the Red showed what head coach Connor Buczek ’15 MBA ’17 has been looking for all year – consistency.
The Cornell Concert Commission canceled its Saturday concert featuring singer Ty Dolla $ign due to the artist’s “scheduling conflicts,” according to a Friday email sent to ticket holders by CCC, Multicultural Community-Fueled Activity Board and Campus Activities. Tickets will be fully refunded, the email added.
There are two types of mornings: the ones where your curls fall perfectly into place, and the ones where you stare into the mirror wondering if a braid is less of a stylistic choice and more of a survival tactic. For students with curly hair, the question isn’t just, “What outfit am I wearing today?” It’s: “What hair accessory is going to save me?”
Remember fidget spinners? Those whirling dervishes of distraction that briefly united children and annoyed teachers everywhere? Fast forward to 2025, and we've evolved from spinners to squishers, specifically the “NeeDoh” — a stress toy that's become the must-have accessory for anxious adults and fidgety students alike. In the ever-evolving landscape of stress management, a peculiar phenomenon has emerged, leaving many to ponder: Is this a genuine aid for anxiety, or just another trend fueled by our insatiable consumerism? The rise in popularity of stress toys, particularly the evolution of the NeeDoh, has sparked a debate that stretches from college classrooms to corporate boardrooms.
